SUMMARY
-------
Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express are two different programs
with different capabilities, although both can send and receive messages
from the Internet. There are two ways to share contact information between
these two programs. If, during Outlook Setup, you choose to upgrade a
program that uses the Windows Address Book, Setup will do a silent
conversion of the address entries to the Contact format used by Outlook.

If you choose not to convert during Setup, you can convert at a later time
by using the Import and Export Wizard. Outlook provides a tool to assist
you in converting Windows Address Book (WAB) information.

The Windows Address Book is used by the following products:

Microsoft Internet Mail and News
Microsoft Outlook Express
Microsoft Outlook 98 and Microsoft Outlook 2000 Internet Mail Only (IMO)
MORE INFORMATION
You can store Address information in your Windows Address Book (WAB) and
import WAB data to Outlook.

How to Use the Outlook Import Export and Wizard
In Outlook, you can use the Import and Export Wizard as the interface for
Address Book conversion. Use the following steps to convert a Windows
Address Book (WAB) file:
Start Outlook.
On the File menu, click Import and Export.
Click Import Internet Mail and Addresses, and then click Next.
Click Outlook Express 4.x, 5 from the list.
Select any combination of the Mail or Addresses from the items listed.NOTE:
With the exception of rules conversion from Outlook Express, the steps to
convert addresses are the same.


Click Next.
Select a destination for the imported address data.
Select the appropriate duplicate items option, and then click Finish.
NOTE: This procedure does not import contacts that are contained in
subfolders in Windows Address Book.


How to Drag Address Information to Outlook
It is possible to drag individual or groups of WAB entries to Outlook. To
do this:
On the Start menu, point to Find, and then click Files And Folders.
In the Open box type, .wab, and then click OK.
Double-click the WAB file from which you want to move addresses.
Start Outlook if it is not already running.
Resize Outlook so that the WAB and Outlook are visible next to each other
on the screen. Verify that the Outlook Contacts folder is visible in the
resized Outlook window.
Select an entry from the WAB. Drag it to the Contacts folder. A new Outlook
Contact form is created with the information from the WAB entry. Click Save
and close.
NOTE: Press SHIFT and select contiguous groups of entries or press CTRL and
select non-contiguous entries. You may want to do this for selected
contacts or small groups.
